Research by the University of Exeter and Quorn unveils mycoprotein’s efficacy in lowering cholesterol, akin to adopting a Mediterranean or vegan diet. Overweight adults substituting meat and fish with mycoprotein for four weeks witnessed a 10% decrease in LDL cholesterol and 6% reduction in non-HDL cholesterol. Such reductions significantly mitigate cardiovascular risks associated with high cholesterol levels. In a real-world setting, participants experienced not only cholesterol improvements but also notable decreases in blood glucose and c-peptide concentrations. Mycoprotein, rich in fiber and low in saturated fat, demonstrates promise in managing cholesterol levels, offering a convenient dietary intervention for enhancing heart health.
